Not something magic, just what show_date_relative() in date.c is implemented:
98 diff = now->tv_sec - time;
99 if (diff < 90) {
100 strbuf_addf(timebuf,
101 Q_("%lu second ago", "%lu seconds
ago", diff), diff);
102 return;
103 }
104 /* Turn it into minutes */
105 diff = (diff + 30) / 60;
106 if (diff < 90) {
107 strbuf_addf(timebuf,
108 Q_("%lu minute ago", "%lu minutes
ago", diff), diff);
109 return;
110 }
